Information Architecture — left nav & related views

Low-fidelity wireframes for the proposed left-navigation restructure and the two new list views (Projects, Agents). Monochrome and structural only — color, spacing, and final iconography are intentionally not represented. Click any wireframe to zoom.

Overview

What this set covers

Revised after board review. Nav structure, ordering, and the open questions are now locked per the board's direction.

  • Top level (no section label): Conference room, New Task, Dashboard, Inbox.
  • Work (exact order): Tasks, Routines, Goals, Workspaces, Artifacts, Projects.
  • Conference room — new placeholder top-level item, chat-bubble icon, empty page for now (screen 1).
  • New Issue → New Task — renamed; standard nav label color (screen 1).
  • Issues → Tasks — renamed globally across the frontend (nav item, page, all references).
  • Artifacts — new Work item; Projects — new Work item at the bottom of Work, opens the projects list view (screens 1 & 2).
  • Removed — the old collapsible PROJECTS section (per-project rows in the sidebar) is deleted (screen 1).
  • Project tiles — neutral gray rounded rectangle + folder icon; color-only customization this phase, folder icon fixed (screens 2 & 5).
  • Agents section — active agents only when any are running; otherwise up to 5 recently-active + "See all agents" → agents list view with per-row key actions (screens 3 & 4).
Screen 1 · Navigation

1.Left navigation (redesigned)

The full sidebar with every nav change applied. Numbered callouts map to the change list.

Annotations

  • 1 — Conference room: new top-level item, chat-bubble icon.
  • 2 — New Issue → New Task; standard nav label color.
  • 3 — Issues → Tasks (renamed globally).
  • 4 — Artifacts: new Work item.
  • 5 — Projects: new Work item (bottom of Work), opens the list view.
  • 6 — Removed: the old collapsible PROJECTS section.
  • 7 — Agents: active/recent + "See all agents" (screen 4).
Why this changes: Locks the nav to the board's specified structure and order. Work becomes the single home for cross-cutting views; per-project rows leave the sidebar entirely (you reach a project via Projects → list → detail). On mobile the sidebar is a full-height drawer; the bottom tab bar is unchanged.
Screen 2 · Projects

2.Projects list view

Opened from the new "Projects" Work nav item. Each project is a row with an at-a-glance summary; clicking a row opens today's project detail view unchanged.

Annotations

  • 1 — Gray folder tile (same primitive as the sidebar).
  • 2 — Overview = project description, one line, truncated.
  • 3 — Task count + budget + status per row.
Why this changes: Gives projects a real index page instead of only the sidebar list. On mobile each row reflows to a card with the metrics on a second line. Task count and budget are not on the Project type today — the board approved adding a lightweight count + budget lookup for these rows.
Screen 3 · Agents

3.Agents list view ("See all")

Opened from "See all" in the Agents sidebar section. Each row carries the key actions from the agent detail page; clicking a row opens today's agent detail unchanged.

Agent detail key actions

Annotations

  • 1 — Identity: icon, name, role, budget spent/limit, last active.
  • 2 — Key actions inline: Assign Task, Run Heartbeat, Pause/Resume, status, ⋯.
  • 3 — Entry point: "See all" link in the sidebar Agents section.
Why this changes: Surfaces the actions you'd otherwise have to open each agent to reach. On mobile the action buttons wrap to a second line within the card. Pause vs Resume toggles on the agent's current status.
Screen 4 · Agents (diagnostic)

4.Agents section — active vs. recently-active

How the sidebar Agents section chooses what to show. Desktop-only diagnostic.

Agents section states wireframe
Rule: If any agent has a live run → show only those (state A). If none are running → show up to 5 recently-active agents sorted by last heartbeat, plus "See all" (state B). "See all" always opens the full agents list view (screen 3).
Screen 5 · Projects (detail)

5.Project tile — customize icon & color

Default neutral tile and the color picker opened by clicking it. Color-only this phase; the folder icon is fixed. Desktop-only overlay.

Project tile color wireframe
Why this changes: Per board direction, build color only first — every tile keeps a folder icon (custom-icon picker deferred). Default tiles are neutral gray. Since the per-project sidebar list is removed, tiles live in the Projects list rows and the project detail header, so the color control attaches to the project itself. project.color already exists — no new field needed this phase.
Board answers

Resolved decisions

  • Terminology — Issues → Tasks, renamed globally on the frontend.
  • Conference room — Placeholder only, empty page for now. Confirmed.
  • Projects: dual presence — No. Delete the existing collapsible PROJECTS section; projects are reached only via the Projects list view.
  • Row data — Yes, add a lightweight task-count + budget lookup for the list rows.
  • Project icon — Color only first. Keep a fixed folder icon for every tile; defer custom-icon picker.
  • Work order — Tasks · Routines · Goals · Workspaces · Artifacts · Projects.
Nesting confirmed: Projects (nav) → projects list in the main pane → row → project detail. "See all agents" → agents list in the main pane → row → agent detail.
